At Yale Cordage, sailing is more than a pastime; it's an obsession. Yale Cordage develops and manufactures the best, most advanced ropes in the industry. Ropes so advanced they're found at every level of the sailing spectrum, from pond-skimming dinghies to globe-circumnavigating trimarans. Tour this state of the art facility and see how cutting-edge fibers like Kevlar, Spectra, Vectran and Zylon PBO are used to produce lightweight, high-performance ropes.
